Retroworks / Oak Ridge

Serving Oak Ridge and Anderson County

Custom software and private AI for Oak Ridge businesses.

Oak Ridge is a science and engineering town, home to Oak Ridge National Laboratory and the small businesses around it. Retroworks serves Oak Ridge and Anderson County from our base in Knoxville.

Oak Ridge businesses

Built for technical shops and everyday businesses.

Many small businesses here are technical: engineering and consulting firms, contractors on large job sites, small labs and shops. There are also medical offices, restaurants and trades, like any town.

Engineering and consulting firms

Project trackers and dashboards built around how your team already works, instead of one more spreadsheet. You own the software.

Contractors and trades

Leads from public sources in the lead portal, plus QuickBooks agents that draft bills and match bank lines for your OK.

Medical offices, shops and restaurants

A website and Google listing set up right. Offices can add GateWatch, in early access, for plain-English findings about their network.

Private AI

An AI that runs on a computer you own.

Some businesses would rather not send their files to a public AI service. We can install a private AI on a computer or server in your office, or set up a commercial AI for your team. You decide which files it can read.

Your contracts and your IT people set the rules for what any AI may touch. We build to those rules. A private AI install starts at $3,500, plus hardware.

  • Runs on hardware you own, like an office server
  • Reads only the folders you choose
  • Connects to your own software when you want it to
  • A person approves what it sends or saves

How it works

Call, quote, build. You approve.

  1. A call about the work. What your team does, what software you use today and what rules you work under.
  2. A paid planning session. For custom software, we map the job with you first. The fee is credited to the build if you go ahead.
  3. A written quote and the build. Every line spelled out. We build in steps, and you see each piece before it goes live.
  4. You approve, then we run it. A person on your team approves what the agents do. We keep it running and check in each month.
